According to the WHO and UNICEF 38% of healthcare facilities across low and middle-income countries lack access to a water source, one in five (19%) are without access to adequate toilets, and over a third (35%) are without adequate facilities for washing hands with soap.
Combining clean water, decent household toilets and good hygiene with routine childhood vaccinations and nutrition support could potentially save the lives of as many as 697,000 children annually.
